The Four Magic Features of Traveler's Cape
Infinite Versatility
Drape it, wrap it, or wear it. The 12 buttons allow you to style it in countless ways. Drape it over your shoulders in a chilly airplane cabin or an air-conditioned cafe, or wrap it around to shield yourself from the sun during city walks.
Lightweight & Breathable 100% Kurume Kasuri Cotton
Made from 100% cotton, Kurume Kasuri is naturally anti-static and incredibly gentle on the skin. Woven slowly and carefully by artisans using vintage looms from about a century ago, the fabric carries a uniquely soft texture. The more you wear and wash it, the softer it becomes, "growing" alongside you as a lifelong companion.
Travel Light and Free
It folds down to an incredibly compact size and weighs less than 200g. Even when you want to minimize your luggage, this single piece ensures you are beautifully prepared for any occasion or changing climate.
Easy Care - Machine Washable on the Go
Toss it into the washing machine just like your everyday laundry. It dries remarkably fast - wash it at night, and it will be ready by morning. Enjoy a stress-free laundry routine even while traveling.
Textile with a 220-year story
